The shape of rooms, the colour and texture of painted surfaces and high ‘cathedral’ ceilings, accentuate architectural features to create desired moods. These ceilings give physical form to the mind’s desire to ‘look upwards on high’ for inspiration. Cathedral ceilings have long been essential to the design of places of worship and spiritual practise, as well as concert halls, lecture theatres and museums – wherever architectural design is required to facilitate sensory awareness and expansiveness of thought.
“The notion that ‘up’ is good, sublime, high, noble etc. is one of the most fundamental and salient conceptual metaphors that there is.”
